Whoops, my mistake sorry. It should be 500 tiles as in the topic. It's not a perfectly square tile size but is still a larger micro, eg. the "bumper" micros of the MM4 final were 400 tiles so this would be larger still.

MRocketsearns NE Parkmaker
It's a vanishingly rare event for new players to burst onto the scene quite as spectacularly as MRockets has, whose first release
Europa-Park
has captured the hearts of the community and won him an instant
Spotlight accolade, with a beaming score of 82.00% that earns him the NE Parkmaker title! One recalls
the likes of Lagom or pants, who similarly arrived with
a bang by way of Liseberg and DisneyEarth Vancouver
respectively, instantly earning their way into the pantheon of Spotlights.
The Lagom comparison is perhaps most apt here as, like our Swedish friend, MRockets achieves Spotlight with a modern and inviting recreation of a European theme park staple. Europa-Park feels at once massive and intimate, every inch bursting with the kind of loving detail and attention that makes RCT a joy to play and explore, offering the viewer a truly engrossing experience that will no doubt be returned to time and again.
Congratulations MRockets! This is a show-stopping introduction, to build something this large and with such skill already exemplifies the kind of affinity for showcase parkmaking that NE was founded on, and we can't wait to see what more you have in store.
